A wonderful weekend as around 60 of our dancers converged on the Yorke Peninsula town of Wallaroo. Some time spent on walking tours, a lot of coffees and eating, mine tours in nearby Moonta and of course 2 dances in the beautiful Wallaroo Town Hall. A lovely weekend but most of all a great time spent with some lovely people – getting to know each other a little better.
Big thanks to Anne and Allan Tuckfield who prganised many of the activites and catered at various times. Fantastic!

Ah – c’est magnifique!
What a wonderful 29th Birthday celebration we had with our theme – Une Affaire Francais. Everyone dressed the part in some way and what a colourful collection of Berets. Strains of Edith Piaf and accordion music welcomed guests and we filled the hall with happy dancers. Thanks to Jeff Seidel, Les Tulloch, John Casey and Ian Rutter for joining in with the calling and to Thelma McCue for the themed Rounds.
Food – wow – plenty of croissants, crepes, French Onion Soup, eclairs, chocolat, cheeses etc to provide a welcome break in the night.
Big thanks too to all those who helped out making food, decorations and setting up, pulling down.
A memorable evening and we launch now into our 30th year. What a rush!

2014 – Gen Y Dance Sessions

Leave a reply


(Click on picture to enlarge then click on picture again)
On the first Monday of every month we hold a dance for “Gen Y” – younger people who just want to try square dancing and dance with their friends or make new ones.
We run from 6:30pm to 8pm and no experience is needed for any of these sessions. We vary the choreo and yet welcome newcomers any time.
The atmosphere is great and man, these guys and girls can move! Learning and dancing fast to some great music, there’s a lot of energy expended.
They usually finish off by nipping out for dinner somewhere close and having a good laugh about it all.
We’re still running these so watch out for notifications on Facebook. First Monday of each month – 6:30pm – 8pm. Spread the word.
